Hello everyone, I am writing a piece on the relationship between dancing and swimming for the next issue of SWIMMER. I would love to hear your thoughts and opnions on that relationship, if you think one exists. Me, I think swimmers and dancers share grace, excellent body awareness and pointed toes :-) And more, but now it's up to you! Thanks, Laura

    Laura. There may be similarities between dance and swimming but I don't understand how there could be any relationship between the two. In one way, they are mutually exclusive. The amount of training time required to be a good swimmer or dancer eliminates the possibility of pursuing another serious activity. I was a good swimmer and competed on a top ten Division 1 team in college. I have a daughter who is a very good competitive dancer.
